Tragic. Thank goodness they’ve been rescued.

I think we're way past the point of “And maybe change the lives of the parents to become better parents.”

I like good cop stories.

I wonder if the parents *can* turn their lives around.

Must be worth a prayer. Bowing my head right now.

Money was going for liquor.

I have heard of the wives of alcoholics hiding the money so that the alcoholic could not buy booze.

This is what happens when government takes over the charity business. I bet this family was on all sorts of benefits. Without government-enforced charity, private organizations would have provided this family with the help they need.

7-year-old boy found trying to sell teddy bear for food

I call instant BS! A no brainer.

That is an adult scam. I am curious to first learn of the parents' or home adults' CVs!

...rap sheets, for those in Rio Linda...

The school district in our area is handing out weekend food bags for kids along with toiletry items. Our church donated as well as individuals. Follow the kids home and look behind the door . . . .so tragic. The police officers are heroes . . . hopefully the parents in this story will turn their lives around but the only true and lasting change can only come about through believing in Jesus. He is our Provider. I hope a Bible believing church will come to the family’s aid. http://www.thereishopeinjesus.com/

Somewhere, probably by accident, this young lad saw he had something of value (if only to him) and was willing to trade for food.

How many in that position start out by shoplifting and move up to robbery.

We may very well have an entrepreneur on our hands - more important, if he has nothing of HIS OWN to hock, does he turn to more conventional or at least in some neighborhoods proven methods.

We have no time for this kid or poor Americans. We need to support and rebuild the world!

Looking sharp America!

It appears that the Food Stamps weren’t working for the kids, as usual.
